Home studio question

I have a traditional DJ setup (2 turntables. 2ch mixer) and will be recording samples through my MPC Ren and laptop. Question, what type of multichannel mixer should I get to be able to hear audio from the DJ setup as well as audio out of my laptop and MPC at the same time? Thanks!

figure out how many outputs you get from all your gear and then find any mixer that has at least that many inputs.

He forgot to mention the part where quality comes into play. The cheaper the mixer, the more unwanted noise it'll produce. I'd say go to your local audio shop and test some of the mixers out. I personally use a mixer that is USB so there's no noise whatsoever.
